Update on Stela

Stela had new tubes put in her ears at the first of the month. She had tubes put in in July, but her ears are constantly draining! She has very small ear canals so all this fluid gets stuck in her ear. Her ENT is at a loss so decided to take out the plastic tubes and put in titanium tubes instead. So far so good! I can tell she is feeling a lot better.

She had to get another MRI on her head. These are the worst things ever! Poor thing screams her head off. Her neurosurgeon said that the fluid in here head hasn't increased so he isn't anticipating having to put a shunt in. THANK GOODNESS!

She is doing so well right now. She learns something new everyday. We finally decided to start having her occupational and speech therapists come out to the house. So far, it has worked out well. We still take her to her physical therapist at the hospital because Stela loves her. Hopefully it won't be long for her to start walking!
